We returned to our spiritual home in California to celebrate 6 wonderful years together…

We love the city lights & crazy nights of San Francisco. Then we took a drive on the twisty Pacific Highway 1 in a Yankie muscle car.
The we enjoyed moonlit beach walks, hiking in the forest, starry skies, incredible food, scenery and experiences. So happy!

Our favourite hand-in-hand beach, nestled at the foot of the cliffs in Big Sur, it is breathtakingly beautiful.

Great place for reading books, having a picnic and watching the mountain birds

Sipping cocktails and watching the sun go down at the Hyatt, Carmel Highlands

The view from our tree house. What an amazing place – so great to be back again

Infinity pool at the Post Ranch Inn, watched the sun rise in the morning and watched shooting starts at night. Beautiful and breathtaking.

Handsome road-king and all-round fabulous husband. So lucky to be travelling the world with my soul mate.

Love the feel of Santa Cruz, so 70s with it’s fairground and boardwalk

Walking to Fisherman/s Wharf in the morning sun

First day, up early for coffee and a lovely walk.

A lovely walk around fisherman’s wharf. Looking out over the bay towards Alcatraz,

Champagne is the only way to start a holiday!

Time to go!

Half Moon Bay, Pacific Highway 1, California

The other view from our tree house and where we went hiking.

Views of the Pacific and the California mountains. A wood burner, massive bed and luxurious surroundings…. just for two…. nothing else needed.

I love my home in Surrey, we often talk of moving to our spiritual home, California, but on days like today, walking with my best friend and all our dogs, then big fluffy sofas and coffee in a cozy bistro, I just can’t think of anywhere better….
